Possibly. Most likely it would be. I think you should see an Allergist about this.

I think so. Some of the extremely chemical scents bother me to the point of getting a metallic taste in my mouth or sneezing if I sniff them.

You would be considered "sensitive" to them. Most allergists consider true allergies as something they can test you for, or that give you hives, a rash, or things like that. It depends on the allergist. I would say you are "allergic" to them and stay away form them, regardless of what we want to call it. It's not worth getting the headaches. And for things like prevention, there are no shots you can take. You might TRY something like Benadryl (an antihistamine many use for all kinds of allergies) and see if that helps any. If not, you'll just have to stay away from those things as much as you can.
